COLEMAN v. OWENS et al.

Court of Appeals of Kentucky.

January 16, 1953.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Francis M. Burke, Pikeville, for appellant.

Baird & Hays, Pikeville, for appellee.


DUNCAN, Justice.

Appellees instituted this action to recover damages for the alleged wrongful removal of a coal loading ramp from their land. The trial before a jury resulted in a verdict for appellees for $2,500.

In view of the conclusion which we have reached, we shall consider only this single question.
